Alexis Eddy — best known as a contestant on MTV reality dating show “Are You the One”— has been found dead in her home state of West Virginia. She was 23 years old.

TMZ reports law enforcement received an emergency call just before 7 a.m. Thursday concerning a woman going into cardiac arrest. No foul play is currently suspected but authorities are still awaiting the results of a toxicology report to pinpoint the cause of death.

Eddy’s last Instagram post shows the reality star bundled up with a huge smile on her face, captioning the holiday-themed pic, “Plot Twist: I’m Santa- y’all r gettin coal 🤷🏻‍♀️.”

In a disturbing coincidence, Eddy’s cousin, Sheila Eddy, was arrested at the age of 16 for the murder of her best friend, Skyler Neese. The 2012 incident involved Sheila luring her friend to a wooded area where she and another friend, Rachel Shoaf, stabbed her and left her to die. Neese was assumed missing for months until Shoaf suffered a nervous breakdown and confessed to the murder.
